TME GOSPEL WAGON SHOP.
Quaint Methods OF Illustration by the
Georgia Evangelist.

Sam Jones, In one Of his Boston ser.
mons, thus quaintly puts the gospel
before his hearers: "Thc gospel Of
Jesus Christ Is, in a very important
sense, simply succession of wagon
shops. on the way to glory, In which
to mend broken wheels and broken
down wagons. Fourteen years ago I
don't believe my old wagon of hui
manity would have rolled ten feet
farther. But In few minutes after I
had got II to the cross II was fixed up
brand new from bottom 10 top, and
exclaimed: Glory to God, have got a
wagon that will take me through this
time But before had gone mile I
went TO take short turn and smack
went wheel, all to pieces. and | cried
Now, just look at that.
"Thc Lord knows / had the hardest
time Of any fellow In this world, and
was just about to give II up aud go
back when looked up and saw be.
nign. looking gentleman In the doorway
Of another shop, who offered to fix my
wheel. He did It and refused To take
any pay, only warning me to be careful
how drove In the future. / told him
I would watch and never break down
any more, but before had gone two
miles l ran into gully and smashed
an axle all to pieces. And so l went on
finding repair shops all the way and
breaking down continually. until my
only fear was that the repair shops
would not hold out. One day l stood
by the side of dying brother and
asked him, as last question, III tho
repair shops held out on the way and
he exclaimed, GLORY to God; yes, they
do hold ont. 1t hasn't been fifteen
minutes since was 10 shop getting

Big Money In Churches.

Gotham, for town supposed to be mort
gagged to his majesty down below, has q
good deal Of money invested In churches,
says the Mall and Express. The total is
about s60,000,000. 1t vexes the soul of
Colouel Ingersoll that all this property is
exempt from taxes. II 1t bore It's share Of
the tax burden like other property its con-
tribution to the city treasury would be
about million year. Trinity Church
heads the list In point of value, the figure
on 1t being S3,00O,000. The Roman Catho-
lie Cathedral on Fifth Avenue comes next,
at S2 900, 600. Trinity is actually worth at
least "A, 600, 600 and the Cathedral not less
than S3,000,000. st. Paul's is set down at
81, 600, and Grace at $350,000, which is
hardly half what any real estate broker
would say II Is worth. The fashionable
St. Thomas Church on Fifth Avenue is
valued at S150,000, and the Fifth Avenue
Presbyterian Church (Dr. Ilall's), near by,
at the same figure. One Dutch Reformed
Church OH the Avenue stands at $3.50 900,
and another at 100000; and the stylish
synagogue, wherein the more progressive
Hebrews worship, at S650,000. One Roman
Catholic Church (St. Paul's) is valued at
100000, and the next highest figure In that
denomination is $3.50 900, on st. Stephens,
the scene OF the DR.. MeGlynn trouble. now
at an end. The well-known Little Church
Around the Corner is on the list, az $780,.
coo. Along Fifth avenue aud Madison
avenue, the arteries through which the blue
blood of Gotham flows, there are some
thirty churches ranging ia value from
100000 to S750,000.

What a Time

People formerly had, trying TO swallow
the o!l-fashioned pill with its film of
magnesia vainly Disgusting its bitter
ness; and what contrast to Ayers
Pills, that have been well called "med-
icated sugar-pums" - the only fear be-
ing that patients may be tempted into
taking too many at dose. But tho
directions arc plain and should be
strictly followed.
j. T. Teller, NJ. D., of Chittenango,
N. Y, expresses exactly what hundreds
have written at greater length. lie
says: Ayers Cathartic Pills are highly
appreciated. They are perfect in form
and coating, and their effects are all
that tho most careful physician could
desire. They have supplanted all tho
Pills formerly popular here, and think
it must be long before any other can
be made that will at all compare with
them. Those who buy your pills get
full value for their money"
"Safe, pleasant, and certain in
their action" is the concise testimony
of DIR. George L. Walker, of Martins
vile, Virginia.

arations. The public having once used
